Single White Female
A recently separated woman seeking a fresh start rents a room to an eager new roommate, only to discover the seemingly perfect tenant is dangerously imitating her life and threatening everything she holds dear.
“Living with a roommate can be murder.”
Synopsis
Allison Jones, recently separated from her fiancé, invites Hedra Carlson to move in as a new roommate. The two women develop a close relationship, but Allison soon becomes concerned that something is amiss with her new housemate.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 19
These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.
Why a floor?
This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.

✅ Made its money back — grossed 3.0× its budget
Why 2.5×?
Cinemas keep roughly half of every ticket sold, and a wide release’s marketing often costs about as much again as the film — so a movie needs to gross around 2.5× its production budget just to break even theatrically. It’s a rule of thumb, not the studio’s ledger (home video and streaming come later).
